Boulder Avenue Bridge Over Burlington Northern Railroad, Image O

The Boulder Avenue bridge, foreground, is the last Depression-era bridge to be replaced in downtown Tulsa. The Boston Avenue bridge, third from front, is the only Depression-era bridge remaining in the area, but most of it is pedestrian use only, the exception being the southern portion that is used to access the Williams Center garage and the former Tulsa Union Depot. There are no known plans to do anything with that bridge at this time. Looking east from Cheyenne Avenue, bridges shown are Boulder Avenue, Main Street, Boston Avenue, Cincinnati Avenue (pier visible just to the right of the center pier at Main Street), Detroit Avenue (girder visible below left span of the Boston Avenue bridge) and I-244 (in the distance above the rail cars). As the sun sets on the Boulder Avenue bridge, so does a time period of replacing or renovating the Depression-era bridges in downtown Tulsa. Photo taken March 2, 2013.
